个人简介
Hugh Gorman is professor emeritus at Michigan Technological University. He served as Chair of the Department of Social Sciences at Michigan Technological University from 2015 to 2021 and as a professor (assistant, associate, and full) of history and policy since 1996.
Dr. Gorman uses history as a lens through which to examine the interaction of technological innovation, uses of the environment, and policy choices, with the goal being to provide insights into the development of industrial and societal practices that are environmentally sustainable. In his first book (2001), he examined the way in which executives of oil companies and oil company engineers responded to pollution concerns in the period 1890 to 1990. The title "Redefining Efficiency" refers to the change that pollution control regulations had on what it meant to operate an industrial facility efficiently. In the absence of pollution-control regulations, it was more efficient for companies to discharge wastes directly into water bodies. With regulations in place, direct discharge of waste ceased to be a legal option and the most efficient process became one that treated those wastes most cost effectively. His second book examined how humans learned to manipulate the nitrogen cycle, with human choices and actions becoming an integral part of that biogeochemical system.
